 Surviving a war while other friends are dying or seriously injured is one of life's most painful experiences, which can lead to physical, cognitive, and emotional reactions. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of unified transdiagnostic therapy on cognitive emotion regulation, experimental avoidance, and diagnostic symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder in veterans.

 This was a quasi-experimental study with a two-group design of experiments and controls with pre-test and post-test, which was carried out on all veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder in Mashhad city in 2020-2021. Thirty-two people were selected by convenience sampling method and randomly assigned to two 16-person experimental and control groups. The subjects filled out the cognitive emotion regulation, experimental avoidance, and post-traumatic stress disorder questionnaires before and after the intervention. The intervention was performed by the first author in twelve 90-minutes sessions on Tuesdays at the Rayan Mehr Golshan Clinic in Mashhad. Data were analyzed using SPSS 23 software through multivariate analysis of covariance.

 There was a significant difference between all components of cognitive emotion regulation, experimental avoidance, and diagnostic symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder in experimental and control groups (p <0.05).

 Transdiagnostic therapy is effective on cognitive regulation of emotion, experimental avoidance, and reduction of symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder in veterans with a disability.

The aim of this study is to compare the strategies of cognitive emotion regulation and mindfulness in people who have or have not committed infidelity which was done using a descriptive comparative research method. From all divorce applicants in Mashhad courts, 100 people (50 people who have engaged and 50 people who have not engaged in extramarital relationships) were selected by available sampling method. Data were collected by cognitive emotional regulation strategies and mindfulness skills questionnaires and analyzed by multivariate analysis of variance. The results showed that there are differences between emotion regulation strategies and mindfulness skills between the two groups, so that in positive cognitive regulation, positive refocusing, positive evaluation, planning, broader perspective, acceptance, action with awareness, description, observation, non-judgment and non-reaction, the scores of people who had not committed extramarital relations were higher than those with experience of extramarital relationship. On the other hand, the group who had engaged in extramarital relationships had scored lower on negative cognitive regulation, self blame, blaming others, rumination, and catastrophizing. This study showed that mindfulness and emotion regulation skills can act as a deterrent to extramarital relationships and training these skills can be useful for couples.
